Stuck between 4-3 and 3-4?

I really don't want to beat a dead horse, but there's no reason with Rivera as HC the D shouldn't performing well

I feel like we're stuck between a 4-3 and 3-4 and IMO we should be operating a lot in the 3-4 with as many LB we have. On every 3rd down, it should be a blitz

Game planning is seriously the key. We have enough guys to rotate and bring to get pressure. You should know what they're going to run on 3rd and get everybody right. Maybe we are still in a learning phase

I think we should seriously start looking at runninng a 34 in the future. I know we don't have the players for it yet but a couple of guys in FA and two players in the first two rounds should help a lot.

Kuechly and Beason are mikes. CJ could possibly slide back there as a rushing OLB. The two Edwards had some experiences playin NT.

You say we have a lot of backers, but what you forgot to add is that ZERO of our lbs are suited for a 3-4.....it's fine in certain situations, but running a 3-4 exclusively would make this defense more abysmal then it already is.....
